I suppose I should amend my earlier comment and say that I don't remember anyone seeing that during testing. Perhaps Nickie does.

I've just trawled through the testing forum and both Eternauta and I had that problem once about a year ago. I can't find my post at the moment but Eternauta referred to it. After reinstalling Tafferpatcher with only t2 water ticked, Eternauta found that the problem went away. I think we agreed that it was down to the EP.
Good to know that some parts of my memory haven't completely failed.

I just tested it and yep, EP's causing this problem. If you have EP installed, you can just save and close at that point, rename EP.crf to anything else (like EP.inactive), then reload the game and all the buttons will switch from numbers to letters.

Apparently mine has. :nono:
Thanks for checking, though, Nickie. You too, Twist.

Ditto Tannar's thanks here too Nickie and Twist. The renaming works with my saved games also. Just for the record for those like myself who do not know their way around Thief folders I found the EP.crf file in the thief2>MODS folder and renamed it there, loaded Kingsbridge and everything looks as the author originally intended now. Thanks guys.

Eternauta,
Great great mission.
Thanks a lot! :D

Note to all taffers using mods:
ep2 mod changes the letters in the church crypts into digits;
NecroAge mod changes the banners of the three great families, so that they are no longer recognizable.
If someone is using both mods (like me), it is best to disable them for this mission. I think this advice should be put into readme file of this mission for future generations :)
A recommendable mission. With great atmosphere. Snow falling silently in the quiet city with the streets lit by occasional candles and lights. Me like it :angel:

I don't think it's as straightforward as that. I have the EP2 installed and mine are letters. After the blip in testing, I always had letters. Are you using FMSel or Darkloader or one of the others?

Hi!
I use DarkLoader. I have a Thief 2 with Tafferpatcher installed. After that, I additionally installed ep2 and NecroAge.
After I disabled NecroAge, but kept ep2, I couldn't read letters, only digits in the crypts, which was incorrect, but I could see the banners correctly.
After I disabled ep2, but kept NecroAge, I could see only the incorrect digits and incorrect banners.
After I disabled both mods, I could see both banners and letters correctly.

I can't comment on the NecroAge as I don't have it installed. My flaky understanding is that FMSel which I use will prioritise which texture is loaded differently from DL. You might find that using FMSel (inbuilt loader in NewDark) would resolve the problem of not seeing the correct texture if you use these patches. But I also believe it's an intermittent problem and doesn't affect all missions. Maybe someone with proper knowledge will explain. :)
